initial status.

you want to erase the entire memory of the recorder.
1 Hold the STOP button, and hold the ERASE button for
2 seconds or longer.
“CLEAR” and “YES” appear alternately on the display for 8
seconds.
2 Press the ERASE button again.
All files in all folders are erased, and the recorder is reset
to its default settings.
Note
If you leave the recorder untouched for 8 seconds or longer before you press the ERASE button
in Step 2, Clear mode will be canceled, and the recorder will enter Stop mode.
Hold
Set the HOLD switch to the HOLD position.
All operation buttons are disabled. This feature is useful when the recorder has to
be carried in a handbag or pocket.

recorder is set to HOLD. The recorder will then begin to
play the file associated with the alarm once you press any
button.
The recorder functions as follows with the HOLD switch set
to the HOLD position:
– If the recorder is stopped, the display goes dark.
